Describe your college experience
Transitioning to college was certainly a new challenge that I, like most other students, felt was overwhelming. Luckily, it wasn’t long til I found multiple communities that made me feel welcome. From student organizations to group-work, I have found many groups of friends.
Tip for future students
My number one tip would be to put yourself out there! Don’t be embarrassed to join a bunch of clubs or talk to new people—you could find your lifelong friends this way! I wish that I’d been told that everyone feels shy and awkward, not just you!
Favorite class
My favorite class has been host microbe interactions because it was super relevant to my other classes and my professor was great!
Career goals
After college I hope to pursue a masters degree in a science-related field. Post graduation, I hope to work as a scientist!
Ideal way to spend a free night
I love to spend a free night in! You can catch me watching a movie, cooking a delicious dinner, and snuggling up with my cat, Azia.
